The Barber shop.

We are seeing more out’a control beards than one can handle! Lets just sort one thing out, put it this way… How would you like us to walk around with long untamed hairy muff’s, eewwww… Mmm I don’t think so, take a trip to your local barber and have a clip and a shave… You may even enjoy it! The Barbershop is so trending right now. It’s ok to grow that beard.. just not out of control. It doesn’t look or feel nice, especially when your going in for a good old pash. The esstudio crew is doing fab old fashioned style shaves and clipper clean ups, nourishing those beards chemical free (that’s right no nasties ingredients) Handsome devil Co these products are awesome.

A bit good ol’ history.

Do you know what the red, white and blue pole represent?. Well that is associated with bloodletting and was a representation of bloody bandages wrapped around the pole. In the Medieval times early 1900’s your local barber and physician were one and the same man. Barbers performed surgery on customers as well as tooth extractions and cut their hair too! This went on for 6 centuries. Next time you come in for a hair cut maybe we will pull that tooth out too!! YIKES! Only men visited barber shops, originally all hairdressing on women was done in the home, usually by the wives and daughters of barbers. Wow how things have changed.

Soon in the salon you will be seeing our restored barber chairs appear. These chairs have a lot of history. If only they could speak. Made in the early 1900’s by Louis Hanson there aren’t too many of these around anymore. Here is one pictured above…Look closely though… .. Are they having a shave or his he having a tooth removed???
